POTASSIUM INCREASES INTRACELLULAR CALCIUM SIMULATING PROGESTERONE ACTION IN HUMAN SPERM

Progesterone (P) and zona pellucida are known to induce acrosome reaction in human sperm by increasing cytosolic calcium. High concentrations of potassium ions (K+) improve the rate of acrosome reaction in human sperm in vitro. This article determined whether the effect of K+ on the acrosome in huma...
